The surrounding disciples discussed among themselves, and the warden's expression was rather grave.
If Lu Xiuwen really injured Yun Shu, he would be guilty of a grave crime, but the evidence of the sword was not enough.
Ye Qingtang secretly observed everyone's reaction, and her lips suddenly curled into a smile. She took a step forward and said, "I think what Senior Brother Lu said should be true."
Everyone was taken aback by Ye Qingtang's words.
What was going on?
Ye Qingtang actually spoke up for Lu Xiuwen?
Lu Xiuwen was also slightly taken aback, and he completely could not figure out what Ye Qingtang was planning to do.
Ye Qingtang smiled and said, "I believe that with Senior Brother Lu's character, he would not do something as despicable and shameless as killing and stealing. If he really did that, wouldn't he be bringing shame to the entire Formidable Heavens Royals? A person who can do such a thing that is worse than a pig or a dog is definitely a complete bastard. "
Although Ye Qingtang's words were helping Lu Xiuwen, it was harsh to Lu Xiuwen's ears.
Despicable and shameless?
Bringing shame to the Formidable Heavens Royals?
Worse than pigs and dogs?
If not for the fact that it was not convenient for Lu Xiuwen to argue, he really wanted to tear Ye Qingtang's mouth apart. This scoundrel was simply making use of the opportunity to scold him indirectly.
However, even if he knew this, Lu Xiuwen could only suffer in silence!
"Senior Brother Lu also said just now that he accidentally dropped this sword, and with Senior Brother Yun's character, I believe that Senior Brother Yun would not do something like slandering a fellow disciple. So … it is very possible that someone deliberately sowed discord and stole Senior Brother Lu's sword, then pretended to be Senior Brother Lu during the mission to deliberately deceive Senior Brother Yun and wait for an opportunity to attack. In the end, Senior Brother Lu should be innocent." Ye Qingtang's uncharacteristic words were to clear Lu Xiuwen's name, and this was really out of everyone's expectations.
On the other hand, Lu Xiuwen's face turned pale, but he was also worried that the sword incident would not be able to escape responsibility. Thus, he could only agree with the warden. "Junior Sister Ye is right. There must be a thief who purposely sowed discord and pretended to look like me to injure Junior Brother Yun. This sword must have been stolen by that thief."
The warden frowned slightly and felt that it was somewhat reasonable. He nodded slightly.
Who knew …
However, Ye Qingtang changed the topic and said, "Although this matter does not have much to do with Senior Brother Lu, the sword that injured Senior Brother Yun was his sword after all. He did not guard it properly, which allowed others to have the chance. If not for the fact that someone disguised as Senior Brother Lu, Senior Brother Yun would not have fallen for it so easily. So … although Senior Brother Lu is not the murderer, this crime cannot be avoided."
Lu Xiuwen was shocked, and he glared at Ye Qingtang.
It seemed that everything she had said just now was waiting for him!
Even though Lu Xiuwen knew that he was tricked by Ye Qingtang, he could only grit his teeth and say, "Junior Sister Ye is right. It's all because of me that Junior Brother Yun suffered such an undeserved disaster. I am willing to accept the punishment."
The warden said. "Lu Xiuwen did not guard well and caused the weapon to fall into someone else's hands. Although you did not do it personally, Senior Brother Yun was injured by your weapon. He can be spared from death, but he cannot escape punishment. He should be punished with fifty strokes of the rod. A small punishment is a big warning. As sect disciples, we should support each other and not let others take advantage of us."
When the warden finished speaking, Lu Xiuwen's face turned pale instantly.
Fifty strokes of the rod could cause a person's skin to split open!
